My addiction to the Dodgers and baseball. I love Our Lady of Chavez Ravine (OLOCR) Dodger Stadium. If you come to Dodger Stadium, I'd love to show you around.SABR & Baseball Reliquary member

Today February 13th is my third year anniversary with my MLB Fan Blog! I am not posting as often as I used to but I’ll get back into the swing again. Three years! 2011 I met two bloggers that used to have a blog here, Randy from Minnesota with his Heirloom blog and Mike from Brooklyn with his blog TheBrooklynTrolleyblogger. It was a pleasure meeting you two. I also got to meet Angel fan Kristin from This is a Very Simple Game MLB blog. http://blithescribe.mlblogs.com/I I hope to meet more bloggers this 2012. Thank you everyone that continue to read my blog or have found me googleing something about the Dodgers. One of these people that found me googleing something about the Brooklyn Dodgers is Dr. Tri. His son and other fellow student have a great baseball project that I hope to keep tabs on and will keep you informed.

Dodger Blogs Softball Tournament. I had a great time playing for Evan’s Blog team Kingman’s Performance! The tournament was at the Big League Dreams in West Covina. This facility has replica fields from the Dodgers, Angels, Tiger Stadium, Yankee Stadium (the new one), Wrigley Field and Fenway Park. We played three games at the Dodger Field, Tigers and Fenway Park replicas. I alternated the catching job with Esperanza, Evan’s wife. Thank God I did or else I would have been more sore the following day. Confession: I am a terrible hitter but everyone was patient with me including the umpire who is a Yankee fan and even Gary and Jon SooHoo from the Left Field Pavilion team that we were playing against were rooting for me to get a hit :-) Thank you for inviting Evan to be part of the team opinionofkingmansperformance.blogspot.com/

Evan who runs a great blog at OpinionofKingman’s Performance and Ron (AKA Fansince53) . Ron is a big Dodger fan that sits in the Left Field Pavilion. If you saw the movie “Bluetopia”, you saw Ron there.

Roberto checking out his team

Jeanine, Emma and Pat :-) (I knew it was Pat, but I wanted to make sure).

We are losing 8-1 but look at the scoreboard! We are playing in the Dodger Stadium replica. The scoreboard has game one of the 1988 World Series with kirk Gibson at bat, bottom of the 9, 3 balls, 2 strikes, 2 outs.

My friend Jon SooHoo playing against us for the Left Field Pavilion team 1. Wish we had him in our team. He can hit! he hit a three run homerun in our game.

My friend Gary playing for the LFP team too.

No pictures from the third game. The 27 Yankees like Evan called us beat us real bad. They (The Left Field Pavilion team #2 actually won the whole thing so it was not as bad getting beat by them, a much younger team.

Here is the schedule of Dodger blogs teams that were in the tournament:
